I think lots of companies compensate for take-home tests (as we are doing now). Also I think the willingness to do a take-home is in itself a good filter (but you gotta make it interesting, as parent said)

By exploit, do you mean offering them jobs that pay higher than local average? Or that developing countries have weaker institutions for labor laws?
Would make a good South Park episode
The stock market is not 'people', but rather composed mostly of institution money and their managers. And due to the short term and relative performance goals, if they want to keep their jobs or fund from withdrawal better escape the stampede before everyone else. As to your question though, people may think the Fed has little room for stimulus this time around.
I don't think you need to learn all possible matchups to play any matchup, as a human would. You'd need to just learn how to play/counter each hero, plus some 2 or 3 hero combos (not all permutations), so on the order of a hundreds?

Agreed. So shovel for dopamine?
Sounds like doctor-as-insurer, financially speaking.
Prompted by this comment I looked up Theranos' investors. Turns out Rupert Murdoch was in Series A. What irony!

Re:In America, politics is the new religion on Monday March 26, 2018 @05:07PM (#16682597)
"Sociologists have long understood that people rely on elite cues to form their opinions. It’s difficult to understand the nuances of every issue, so Americans generally adopt the views of people who share their values. " I guess this will always be the case, that cue being religion, politics or other ideology.
Well couldn't it have been the opposite? Hypothesis: maybe this kind of research has the least marginal return, therefore only the most profitable funds are willing (or able) to invest in it (Bridgewater would invest $10M for 0.1% of improvement while a small fund can't afford that luxury given that 0.1% is fund size independent).
I think it's for people who are too lazy for grocery shopping but not lazy enough to just order takeout. That's a tiny sliver on the laziness scale IMHO.
Wait, what do you mean Intel abandoned China?
